Description
Singular PR66 Deep Cameo
1870 Seated Dollar
1870 $1 PR66 Deep Cameo PCGS. The 1870 proof Seated dollar
is a curious issue. There were 1,000 pieces struck, but apparently
nowhere near that many were sold with the remainder being melted at
year's end, making it scarcer than several of the preceding Seated
dollar issues even though its mintage is higher. The fields on this
piece shimmer with bright, mirror-like intensity and show virtually
no impairments, even under close examination. Set against the
fields are the frosted white devices which sparkle against the
illimitable depths of reflectivity. Mostly untoned with just a bit
of haziness on the obverse. As a future identifier, a small area of
planchet roughness (as struck) is seen near the border at Liberty's
foot. Population: 1 in 66 Deep Cameo, 0 finer (11/10).Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 252S, PCGS# 97018, Greysheet# 7339)
Weight: 26.73 grams
Metal: 90% Silver, 10% Copper
